Gotta agree with BOTH your statements.

For RELIABILITY (of the positive kind), LOCAL DRIVE only.

For RELIABILITY (of the negative kind), shared DRIVE (W7 host <-XP ) . It would do some things fine, and others it would hang closing the MDE

Been there, done that. Was lucky that no damage was done, only that I had to use the Task Manager to KILL Calibre each time because the 'posted' signal never arrived back to release the MDE.

This does not stop you from doing a one way BACKUP to the cloud
